What the Security section is for
Members of your practice are initially entered on to the system from File Maintenance - Staff. To allow them to log on to Vision they must then be added in Security. Adding a staff member from Control Panel - File Maintenance, automatically prompts you to add the user in Security.
From the Vision front screen, select Control Panel - Security to display the Security screen.
The security screen is divided into three panes:
- Current Users (top left) - Users added in File Maintenance, their login names, passwords, defaults and screensaver options, see Current users.
- Groups of Users (bottom left) - Users can be split into groups with access rights to specific Vision functions, see Groups of Users in Security):
- All Users
- Clinical Managers
- System Managers
- User-definable groups
- Vision Functions (right frame) - A list of modules and functions within Vision, to which individual users or groups of users can have access rights, see Vision Functions.
